You will get more responses on Mud.
Check for cracked radiator, valley plate leak, leaking cam tower. Ensure the AHC works properly.
Price is hard to say because every region is different. It might be a bit high but isn't out of line with current pricing.

U able to put it on a lift and get a better look from under? The rusts looks to be just surface rust (if that's true then that's fine w/ me). but need to get a better look from underneath.

IF it is surface rust, a couple spray cans of Woolwax will fix it up for another 50K miles! Take a small hammer, hit the important rusty spots, and see if they are solid, or punky! We can not tell from a picture.

But as said, make sure the other systems are fully working

I would figure the cost of a real undercoating job. Not junk like Waxoyl; a real coating that will stop the rust & protect it like Dinitrol. Personally, it would scare me enough to walk away. I would be concerned about “what else” am I not seeing
